It was a beautiful day for reflection yesterday.
Day 26 of the PL Calendar
Maintain a positive attitude and wisdom will come to you.
Worrying will prevent you from having good ideas. Stay positive and you will find a solution.

Life is lived in segments. Remember when the phone was thought to be the greatest of inventions. A voice from across the miles, would bring cheer, maybe only once a year. At Xmas, everyone would gather around the phone, and wait eagerly to speak to the relative, or friend who lived far away. It brought everyone close.
What time was spent with someone else was precious, not taken for granted, it was appreciated and remembered well into the years to come.
Spend today enjoying the sunshine, create your own. If you skimp on a painting, then your painting will not turn out well.
PL calendar day 25, There is no reason to hold back
If you skimp on the paint, then your painting will not turn out well. Live a fulfilled life every day by utilizing things, money, your knowledge or energy to their fullest

mixed media art Q
PTSD Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, we have all heard of it, many of us deal with it in our lives in some way, friends, family, neighbours, work mates. Usually someone somewhere, in your sphere, knows of, or has someone who has had to cope through a crises. We know the weather patterns are changing too.
So many voices, so many schools of thought, everyone has a different reality. Why are some worlds lived in monochrome, and others vary in degree of colour. Life simply IS.
Same planet, different longitude and latitude perhaps, sometimes it is the same place in time and space, yet the people involved are scrambling for harmony and balance in a world that can be chaotic at times, there is order in the Universe, but we, the human species, is often out of step.
This time of year can be very hard for those who are coping with a bout of December dis”ease”.
PL Calendar day 23 Appreciate our differences
Appreciate the colourful personalities of the people around you and enjoy their uniqueness to the fullest.
PL Principle #2 I will not have complaints about others, matters, nor the weather. Rather I will always be creative and will look for short comings in my own thinking and actions.
Oyahsikiri
Everything is possible when we believe!
Please add to your prayers all those who need special help. In prayer we offer healing and positive thoughts to all, for in our life on earth we are bound to one another by the air we breathe.
PL Principle #3 I will live with a mind of appreciation towards others and things.
When a stranger lands in your space – There is nowhere to escape
The eyes reflect the night, you look for life inside, but find there is no sight
Others wander the night, some with seeing eyes, but not the stranger in your space
what brought her here, will tomorrow a tear be shed, or will we both stare into the night
waiting for the starship to return for her. Of my world she cannot be, for in my world, there is room for only me I have eyes that see and a heart that breaks, vacant eyes belong in another time and space.
Be calm and kind hesitating to share true feelings, can hurt not only ourselves but others. PL calendar .. day 17 Oyashikiri

I came, and went, laughed, cried, blossomed and flew away.
You missed that moment, didn’t you?
A moment comes, and vanishes, within seconds,
true intentions come from the heart
no day is like another
a moment lost in anger
is time not lived in happiness
with winter comes a calming bliss
purity and stillness
no matter the chaos around us
when we are present in every way
a moment is never missed
life is what we make of it
choices we make,
be happy today, make it a special day
why, because you can!

mixed media -Q
Good morning everyone, bom dia a todos..
Trying something new, with a new medium, I just wasn’t getting it. At least not with the results I wanted. Mostly I would get it out late in the evening ,just before going to bed, and have another go at it.
Last night, with time to spare, I organized the different medium I wanted, and used a different method of application. Voila the look I wanted, 1,2,3, the card was done.
PL Calendar day 7 – Don’t strain, don’t rush, and don’t be greedy
When you are doing something you may rush things to get good results, quickly . Instead relax and enjoy the process.
Blessings of the day dearest friends.

somewhere, sometime, a different scene played out around these doors, the pump was busy every now and then, and a traveller would stop and sit a spell
how you doing, nice day isn’t it,
going far, what else can I do for you?
now we drive up and wait in line for a self-serve pump
pay the pump with a plastic card, put the gas in ourselves,
and drive away, not a word is spoken. no one cares.
social niceties, and genuine customer service
if it could be seen , would look like the picture above.
still there, however not appreciated, just a memory
of another time and place

PL Precept # 7 Everything exists in relativity
ancestors Day ceremony on the 11th (Tuesday) 10 am)
photo found on social media
Bom dia, um maravilhosa dia para todos noa – A happy start to the week.
This is me thinking…. yeah really 
When I am working on project, and in full gear, this is what one of my work spaces looks like. I used to ask myself how I could really find anything in what my husband used to shudder at, (to him it was just a mess) However I think my best when I see my stuff that I have out. My eyes take everything in and the mind processes it. My mind is my very own personal computer. It has its own way of computing.
I am happy to say, that over the years, I have grown to love my mind, and accept with great appreciation that it is mine. As an artist, we learn that when we create, it is our own expression, no one elses, ours. Certainly if we have to share our environment, we have to learn to define our own space. All that said, when I walked into my office this morning, I sighed with relief that my thinking space was waiting and ready for me.
When I do clear things up, it feels barren the comfort of being “in progress” is itching to get back in.
Remember we are all different. We all have our own way of doing things. My Mother’s one constant in life (to me anyway) was,” if people or someone can’t accept you for who you are, then they aren’t keepers”.
PL Precept # 7 Everything exists in relativity
PL Precept #17 Grasp what is most essential
Bed time is uncluttered. Open space, no distractions. Balance in my day.
